In view of the azimuth resolution of the helicopter-borne rotating array synthetic aperture radar (RoASAR) depending on the azimuth reconstruction angle and the sector distortion caused by the azimuth Deramp processing, this paper proposes an efficient helicopter-borne RoASAR high-resolution imaging algorithm based on two-dimensional (2-D) chirp-z transform (CZT). First, the high-order Taylor series expansion is performed on the slant range, and the accurate 2-D spectral expression of the point target is obtained by using the method of series reversion (MSR). Based on that, the space-variant characteristics of the range cell migration (RCM) terms are analyzed. After that, the space-variant RCM and the sector distortion effect caused by the azimuth Deramp processing are removed by using efficient 2-D CZT, thereby increasing the azimuth reconstruction angle and improving the azimuth resolution. The proposed algorithm is efficient without the interpolation operation, and it is easy to implement in real-time. Finally, the simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
